In the past 5 months I've had several dreams about my father dying. I've also had dreams about my mother dying. They normally die suddenly from an illness, heart attack, stroke ect... I live far away from them so I also get a call from one of them telling me the other has died. What does this mean?

A mans job is it to take the beach or Fallujah or anything that involves beeing exposed to enemy fire fast reflexes and balls of steel. Amazingly feminists agree on it as well. Why dont feminists agree that big buisness or science is a mans job as well depsite the absence of female success (even in a time where they are actually favoured over men, despite of what current day feminists say) ? Why invest in women and send them to buisness school ? I mean you could use your Computer as a doorstopper and see if you can get your calculator to handle C++ somehow, but why would you do that ? Why do feminists insist Men should be home changing diapers so women can run down Juggernauts ? I am not saying a woman cant be better than a man, it depends on how you pair them up, but for every good woman there is always a better man, just like in sports, so why invest in women ?

Dont try i'm loving and caring so are millions of people.
most people strive to be different only to end up being the same as another group of people. If you think you dont have a unique point then say so thats fine.

I've had that "i've been here before" feeling, then realize that I actually did experience that feeling before, but in a dream. Anyone else have that happen?

I don't consider myself to especially intelligent or talented, but I can usually work through most problems that come up - whether it's an equipment break down, a computer problem, or something else. Even if my solution isn't exactly procedure, I can almost always find a way to get done what needs to get done.

The thing that bothers me as a manager is that it's almost impossible to find employees who are able to do this. It's not like being a manager is the secret, because I have always been able to figure things out by looking at a manual or just working my way through the problem.

I'm just wondering if this ability to work through things is a natural talent that is difficult to teach or if there is a method for teaching people how to think their way through things. Often when I'm training or helping people I will set them on the right path and see if they can figure it out, but I usually have to give even more help.

I find it so frustrating because it's so easy for me.

as far as the arguement goes, i think gays should NOT be allowed to get married but i beleive that there should be some sort of ceremony which legaly binds the two as a couple with the usual pre-nups and so forth. marriage is for hetrosexuals. It's as simple as that. homosexual couples can have some other way of displaying to the world how they feel about each other. how many of you beleive that this is the way of the future?

This question is open to both guys and gals. Say that you are a guy who is on a date with a girl. During the date, you open the doors for her, pull out her chair, and even pay for the dinner. You are basically being a gentleman, like both your mother and father raised you. During the dinner, she tells you that "I don't believe that gentlemanliness constitutes respect and I find it patronizing and sexist."

What would you think about what this girl said?
What would you say to her face if you were the guy?
Do all women feel this way?
Are any women in this category have this belief system?
Is the women at the date correct for saying that?
Are both parents wrong for raising their sons to be a gentlemen towards women?

10 points goes to the person with the most insight and answers all the questions above.

Strange sort of disorder. Anyone know a name for it? This guy works for people for free, let's them pile on extra work for no charge. Always helping someone do something to the point where it seems to me is just being used. I asked him about it and he d=said he would feel guilty if he didn't help them. Dozens of people that just call him to help move furniture, fix their cars, do there yard work and he never has time for himself. Says he would feel guilty if someone called him to help overhaul there engine all day long for free and he said "no, I'm going to the lake today". it seems he would rather give up any and all personal enjoyment to simply 'be there for people', yet he is unhappy because he has nothing, no time for girlfriends or anything for himself.

I have seen this several times already in media reports. They claim that limited refining capacity is partially to blame for increased (crude) oil prices. I can understand that refining capacity would affect prices at the pump, but how is it that it affects world crude oil prices? It would seem that limited refining capacity that would cause limited supplies at the gas pump which would result in less crude oil being used, thus causing higher crude oil supplies. If other countries do not have as limited a refining capacity, wouldn't it make sense that they would have lower prices at their pumps (all else being equal)?

I have a problem with my physical body. My built was not developing normally. I don't have Adam's apple. I don't have muscles. I don't have a low voice. I also noticed that my "balls" are small and not level. I would like to be a real man for my wife or she will divorce me. Problem is, I am more attracted to a man than to a woman. My colleague are starting to notice, and I get very embarrassed. I am trying to hide this from them and my family, but for how long? I do my best to act like a real man, but find it very difficult.

I am a soldier and I have this recurring dream. I dreamt that I was being chased by this man with a circular saw and I was very afraid. I hid under a table and saw the mans lower leg pacing left and right. I kept thinking " please do not let him look under the table and see me". Well, He looked under the table and saw me. He then proceeded to put the end of a pistol on my forehead while i was crying. All of a sudden, he pulled the trigger and all I saw was black and my ears are ringing... ringing, and ringing and everything is black. Please help me. What does this dream mean?
